Blood for Blood

Blood for Blood came out swinging on 1997’s Spit My Last Breath. You could say they unassumingly reflected the intensity of a scene overlooked by the music industry and simultaneously mirrored the aggression of a working class forgotten by its country's "leaders." During 1998, BFB uncorked unadulterated rage with Revenge on Society, which Axe To Grind cited as one of the "5 Hardcore Albums That Defined 1996-2000." The musicians rallied together with 1999's Livin' In Exile hailed as "definitive" by Boston Phoenix. The 2002 opus Outlaw Anthems resonates to this day with millions of streams. Moreover, they toured with everyone from Dropkick Murphys to Terror and Sick of It All. Garnering praise, New Noise Magazine marveled at how "their unforgiving attitude of give no fucks simultaneously created their own niche of a scene, a style, and a culture within sub-genres of music which quickly spread worldwide," and Invisible Oranges attested, "Rob Lind is a friggin' genius in my book.” No Jumper even touted them among "the best hardcore bands of all time." Save for a few short-lived reunion attempts, the band was more or less dormant from 2004 onward. Shocked to life once more by founder, guitarist, and vocalist "White Trash" Rob Lind and long-standing bassist Ian McFarland, Blood For Blood are back with shows and their first original release in 21 years "You're Gonna Have To Kill Me."
